cheers bud im a few months into my course but aint touched mosaics yet, only on the shower wall at home and after looking at some of the albums of the people on here i need to pull me finger out me thinks

I'v used them gooner,extremely hard on blades! my sigma 300mm blade got totally wasted one day on a bar front laying them !the marcrist does a good job on them.
Beautiful tiles though,i'v fitted the black,the red,and the cream and i had some black ones cut into mosaics for a shower area.sweet but damn expensive.over here they are over a ton per yard.

[david campbell]

need good blades if they are the good thick ones,and good chinagraph pencils,they are a nightmare to mark with cheap ones,the thinner the grout line the better they look

[Diamond Pool Finishers]

I've used them loads mate - the last lot I got for a bar/nightclub I got from Pilkingtons and they were a bright red and cobalt blue 400x400, looked spot on, but like eveyone has said nightmare on wheels

I'll try and remember where else I've bought them

I've bought from Mosaic Heaven before as well and they are good to deal with

[hillhead]

too expensive over here,1-2mm joints needed as there is usually a small bevel all the way round.

[ricmrc]

the cheapest quartz tiles i've found are from a company in durham, they come in 8 different colours, 4 different sizes, as well as in mosaic, are fantastic quality and at the minute are selling for about £50pm
website is www.tilesporcelain.co.uk and if you're phoning them tell them you got their details from richard at mrc tiling, and i might get a better discount next time
